PROPOSED NEW TERRITORY

'Tho Moscow idaho Mirror is sed-
ulous'y endeavoring to work up popular
movement for the organization of a new
territory out of North Idaho aud the
portion of Washington Territory lying
between the angle of the Columbia and
Snake rivers. The Mirror evidently
thinks that statehood will be easy Of at
tainment if such territory is organizad.
This is delusion. The North Idaho
people should possess their souls in pat
ience for some years. There are too
many big territories now itching fer
statehood, and their case will drag heavi-
" for long time yct."
The foregoing is from tho St. PauI
Pioneer Press, and is important chiefly
as showing the drift Of public opinion
east Of the territories. 1t may or may
not be true, that the cases OF several big
territories will "drag heavily for time
yet" One thing is certain, however,
and that is that unless the question is
constantly and tirolcssly agitated by those
interested, the desired relief will be
long time coming. Whether any speci
advantage will be gained by the forma.
tion Of a new territory suggested is Ger.
tainly questionable. To disint rested
observer, it would appear that the arel
embraced between the Pacific Ocean and
the Bitter Root mountains from the most
homogeneous territory within natural
boundry lines.
The defeat of the annexation scheme
by pocket veto docs not seem to have
dampencd the ardor of it's champions.
Senator Stewart is authority for the as.
sertion that the President, after further
deliberation on the question, has Ell
pressed his willingness to sign the bill
should it be passed by the next session.
Statehood would then be more feasabl,
than if two territories were constructed

A Place to which to Emisrats.

Mars is almost universally accepted as
being kind Of duplicate earth. 1t IL
endowed with land, water, clouds and
air, and now accumulated around its
poles in their respective winter seasons.
The atmosphere of the plante is, however,
obviously much noe rare than that Of
the Garth. so that it only excrts at the
plantc's surface a pressure of two
pounds and quarter to the square inch
The clim te of Mars is conceived, from,
the small amount Of snow that accum
lates at the poles Of the planate, to be
comparatively mild. The water is dis
tributed into very curious series
Of long parallel canals which run
out from the ocean basins to an extent in
some places of three or four thousand
miles. Two moons have been discovered
since 1877, presenting diameter Of not
more than six or seven miles, and .e-,.
Of them completing revolution round
the planate in a little more than seven
hours. - World.

the North, and Nevada, we hope, viii
steal them, capital and all, and leave
them striped and lashcd with stripes for
the mean wrongs and petty spitcs they
have given US of the North. From the
lower country lapcrs we see new and
perhaps ieaseablc project, which is to
form Il new state from the counties tf
Eastern Washington Territory aud al
east of the Cascades mountains and all
west Of the Bitter Root mountains; it
would cover an immense territory and
would possess Ill the many natural ard
varied resources that any new state or
territory could wish, or possibly expect,
and it would be in easy communication
from all parts at all seasons of the yer
! from the numerous line of railroad and
is nayigable rivers, mud the capital
could be located centrally any where
almost; it would be good scheme anl
one worth considering and would no
doubt find favcr with large portion of
people who are now citizens of the
country proposed for new state; 1t
would certainly be rich and prosperous
one, for its agricultural lands and its
grazing lands would keep up its stock
interest and the timber supply in the
mountains would be source of wealth
and would be very valuable and to take
in view the mining Interests of a large
portion of the territory, it would be
immense and would be silver factor of
no small interest as we'll as source Of
wealth and one to enrich and develope a
fast growing state and bring it to the
front for its important industries aud
solid wealth. Yours, Me- PIERCE.

THE SINKIEG OF THE STEAMER
ON COEUR d'ALENE RIVER.

Since we published the dispatch Of
deputy marshal Greene, then at Occur
d Alone City of date April 5, and the
drowning of several men, we have re-
ceivcd additional particulars through the
Orcgonion, Union and JoWnol. The
names given as having been drowned are,
j. c. Hanna, clerk of Spokane Falls,
n. J. Higgins, Of Bangor, Me-, Lorenzo
Pike of Portland, Oregon, Ed. Jerome
Of Lewiston, Idaho, and one other person
name unknown. All, save one OF the
papers, concur in the statement Of Mr..
Greene, that it was the new steamer
Spokane owned BY Nelson Martin. The
steamer was capsized in the Occur
d Alcne river about one mile below
| Kingston, encountering drift and was
completely turned over by the swift cur
rent. There were nineteen passengers on
board at the time, aud all were sub
merged, fourteen of whom succeeded in
gaining the shore. while the other five
were lrownded They arrested the cap.
tain and engineer, but afterwards released
them on their own recognzance. IIiy
gins was man of means who was about
to invest largely in the mines. Pike
was commercial traveller from tho
crockery house of Charles Hesle & Co.
Portland, Oregon, and leaves
wife aud several children tt
mourn his sad death. j. 6. Hanna also
leaves a wife and children at Spokan,
Falls. Ed. Jerome was saloon keeper
in Lewiston also leaves a wife and ;
brother-thc latter, +. E. jerome, liv
cry and stable man of this city. Tn,
fifth party was unknown to the part,
sending the news. Further particular
may be learned before we 60 to press.
| LATER.-We have gathered furthe
particulars from letter to +. M. Mann
ing Of this city from his brother Charle
Manning at Occur d'Alene City, an,
from A. J. Shaw, who returned from
Spokane Falls on Saturday last. 1t ap
pears that Marshal Greene and Chas
Wood of Camas Prairie were on board
the time of the capsizing, and the formc
got out readily, but Greene went unde
the drift pile and was much stranglcd
and thought himself lost, and could onl,
see his wife and babies for while whe1
under the water, but soon was able to Sc
light up through the diff and climbc,
for it and soon got his head above waite
and then encountered more DRIFT. from
which he could not extricate himself, bu
was soon relieved by two others who &c
ont upon the drift, and was thus saved
the boat went entirely under the drif
and become total wreck. Higgins bod
was recovered, and in his trunk was foun,
checks for $50, 900, and evidences of hi
having been divorced from his wife il
Maine and of having given to her $50,
900 upon the separation. The boat wa
the small pleasure steamer that used t,
